I love to eat which ultimately led me to a love of cooking. Friends and family have told me for years that I need to write a cookbook. Well, this blog is to provide a place for all of my friends to find the latest creations from my humble kitchen. I hope you find something that inspires you to get cooking.

Cranberry Conserve
If you have never had homemade cranberries on your Thanksgiving table, you don't know what you have been missing. It is very easy to make and once you have tasted this there will be no going back.
1 quart of cranberry juice(not diet)
1/4 cup apple cider
1 cup sugar
1 orange peel, cut into strips
1 tablespoon fresh grated ginger
2 bay leaves
1 cup toasted hazelnuts
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 pound fresh cranberries
In a medium saucepan,combine the cranberry juice, apple cider, sugar, orange peel, ginger,and bay leaves. Bring to a boil and simmer until it has reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Add the nuts, vinegar and cranberries. Continue to cook until the berries burst, about another 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and the orange peel. Pour into a bowl and place in the frig. The pectin in the berries will help it thicken as it cools. Serve cold.
